Rawlins still wants to die on the gallows and Is tired of the efforts being made by •vttorney John R. Cooper in his behalf, he will get Ills wish, and Jt will take an act of the legislature or some .action just, an strong to prevent him from paying the death penalty nt the end of a rope. After twice taking the old man’s case to the supreme court of the United States, nnd all the time having Rawlins quoted In the newspapers As not appreciating these efforts, Attorney Cooper has now decided to let Rawlins hang. If hang he'wants to. Attorney Cooper has just returned to Macon from Atlanta and he declared that so far ns the old man was con cerned his ettorts at keeping him from the gallows were at An end, providing th# old man wants to dla, tnd Uii latest that has come from the Valdosta Jail Is to the effect that Rawlins Is tired of delay and wants to pay his penalty. Will Fight for Boys. But with the two sons of the old man, Milton and Jesse, the case is different, and Attorney Cooper declared he would not let them hang. At the same time he took occasion to express himself strongly about the prison commission nnd declared a scheme was on toot to make him stop lighting for the llv the in (is. Their father, together with the ne gro, Alf Moore. Is sentenced to die on December 4, and the date set for th execution of the two boys Is on De cember 7. Attorney Cooper declure ti*K arrangement only gives him thre days in which to work for the lK>yj and he says further that the fixing of :he date at this tlrao was nothing more than a scheme to block his efforts. Even at that he says he has not quit, and that if the prison commission does not take some tlon in the near future he will take the cases of the hoy again In the courts and prevent the high rhertff of Lowndes from springing the. tr» p on December 7. Tomorrow Attorney Cooper Is going to Valdosta for a conference with old man J. G Rawlins and If he still says he Is anx ious to die with Alf Moore on the gal lows in the hope of hearing the negro make a confession that will show the two boys innocent of the bloody work that snuffed out the lives of the Carter children.

Ottawa, Ont., Nov. 20.—Charges of Commander Robert Peary's mistreat ment of his crew, of hardships Imposed unnecessarily on the passage south, be side which the sufferings of the frozen north were as nothing, of unhealthy qusrteri—In short, a general criticism of the man who has pushed farthest north, Is contained In a letter from one of the Roosevelt’s crew, which was received here today. J. Shortall Is the complainant. He wrote the letter on October 22 at Hope- dale. It tra* forK-trded on the ship Virginian Lake to Sydney. N. S., where It was mailed to friends In Ottawa. Ship Slung Three Rudders. Shortali writes that conditions had become so bod when they reached Hopedale that the mate, four sailors and four flremen refused to go further on the ship, which was leaking badly through Its crushed stern. The Roose velt had slung Its third rudder, which was but a poor makeshift. Two rud- I ders were carried oway on the down passage. The members of the crew hod little to eat and were living In squalor, short all around. Their experiences were worse, he wrote, than the hard ships. they endured In the Polar re gions. Would Net Go Again. Shortall Bays they had the hardest time on the voyage of any crew that ever was oflnnt. He declares that none of them wobld go-north ngain under any circumstances. One of the, crew of the Virginian Lake, who boarded the Roosevelt at Hopedale. stated the crew told him the vessel hail three boilers when It left Sydney, but While off Greenland two of them burst. The crew also said the ship was not strong. It was totally unlit for Arctic work, and as one of them put It, "after getting Into heavy Ice It came together tike an accordion playing music.” Peary is Criticised. The Roosevelt. It Is declared, Is al together too light for forcing Its way thtongh floes to the pole. On the way north the men said that they landed part of the stores, Penry tolling them that In fifteen months there would be n relief ship sent to them. But such a ship. never came. Since August last they have been living on two meals n day. Xhey criticised Peary In the strongest terms possible, nnd said they would not undertake a similar voyage In such a ship again for all the mohey In the United States treasury.

Nov. 20.—"Resolved that the Democratic party of the United States Is, and has always been, a white man's party.” This plank Senator J. T. Slorgan, of Alabama, believes should bo Inserted In the next natlanal platform. He goes further. He believes that some state, through Its delegates assembled, should press this plank before the convention’s committee on resolutions, with the dec. laratlon that the delegates will with draw In case It Is not considered. Alabama to Insist. He would urge that the plank come from a delegation representing a North, ern state, but If such Is not the wish ot a delegation, rather than have the subject matter eliminated, he advocates jLIt ss we'of "the Sou th' aredo’lng’ To”-’ Hla own state, Alabama, comes first on th. alphabetical list, and the high re gard in which the senator’s views ere held In that state Insures that Its dele gates to the next national convention will Insist upon the ndoption of such a plank. That they will be enforced by other Southern states goes without saying. At the St. Louis national convention In 1404 a suggestion was made along similar lines, though not so clear-cut, brief nnd forcible. The resolution com mittee there promptly threw It out. The Eastern contingent, having nomi nated the candidate, was concsded the right to write the platform, and to the disgust of many Southern politicians the negro question was Ignored. “Would Carry Presidency.” Should .the delegates of any one state submit this plank, with a decla ration of withdrawn! If It Is rejected, It would carry through,” said Senator Morgan last night. "Moreover, It would carry the presidency. ■ It Woul„ d -v- op every other Issue.

There has bfeen much discussion as to Cofree and Postum lately, so much In fact that some of the coffee Importers and roasters have taken to type to pro mote the sale of their wares and check If possible the rapid growth of the use of Postum Food Qoffee. In the coffee Importers’ book a chap ter Is headed "Coffee as a Medicine” and advocates Its use as such. Here Is an admission of the truth, most Important to all Interested. Every physician 'knows, and every thoughtful person should know, thut habitual use of any “medicine” of'the drug-stimulant type of coffee or whlsky qulckly causes irrlfutlon of the tissues and organs stimulated and finally sets up disease In the gfeat majority of cases If persisted in. It may show In any one or the many orgaifk of the body and In the great majority of cases can be directly traced to coffee In u most unmistakable way by leaving off the active Irritant—coffee—and using Postum Food Coffee for a matter of ten days. If the result Is relief from nerv ous trouble, dyspepsia, bowel com plaint. heart failure, weak eyes, or any other malady set up by a poisoned nervous system, you have your answer with the accuracy of a demonstration In mathematics. •There’s a reason” for Postum. $11.70 TO NASHVILLE AND RETURN.
